Accompanying Muro is a keyboardist and wind musician. Famed trumpet player and head of Berkeley Springs Library, Larry Springer, joins Muro in her final number: "Daddy's Little Girl."

Muro attributes her repertoire of cabaret tunes and jazz standards to a childhood filled with listening to her parents' collection of Sammy Davis Jr. and Dean Martin songs as well as Broadway musicals and the Italian opera that her father sang. "I liked the richness of the music, dramatic interpretation and the range of the singer’s voice” she said. A Baltimore native, Muro began studying voice at age eight and continued her training in classical music at the Baltimore School for the Arts and the Peabody Conservatory. According to longtime friend and teacher, Pat Springer, Muro went from a classical soprano to a deep, earthy jazz sound. “I sing because of how real it makes me feel inside, because I’ve got a story to tell. I don’t know how I would ever be able to live or cope without music. It’s like taking away paint from an artist or clay from a sculptor,” Muro said.

Muro has a jazz CD titled “Charade.” The CD offers listeners an array of old jazz standards. " I would describe it as simple and sophisticated, yet sultry and alluring,” said Springer. "Everyone who listens to it seems to agree." The young singer was featured in the major motion picture "Washington Square."
